Verdict
Fullandby, Ice Planet and Machinist are three against the field in another tough race to call for punters and the vote is given to Fullandby. There selection won well last time out when beating The Snatcher remains on a fair mark and in a wide open affair he looks the value bet. Ice Planet rates the main danger on hid best form but it usually takes him a couple of runs before he reaches his peak. Machinist is another worthy of respect as he looks the stables first string on jockey bookings but he looks to have plenty of weight. Coucellor is in good form and could run well at a price from a good draw but this is his toughest assignment for a while. Of the remainder Royal Orissa has dropped to a handy mark and should be noted in the market but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Fullandby
